Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in dismissing the writ petition on the grounds that the petitioner was not an 'aggrieved party' under the Maharashtra Universities Act, 1994. The Court clarified that the interpretation of 'Graduate' should include those holding higher degrees, such as LL.M., for electoral roll registration. The appeal was allowed, and the matter was remanded for consideration of the legal issue raised by the petitioner regarding the eligibility criteria for the electoral roll.
